WHERE EXPERIENCE AND ATTITUDE ARE SECOND TO NONE

Having owned a thoroughbred with the worst feet in the world, a welsh pony with a boxy foot and two current ones with collapsed heals, I have had my fare share of farriers.  I have had my current farrier for many years now, but before I found Phil and his father I went through a few.  What this has taught me is that without a good farrier, you are not going anywhere. Simple.  Pony Patters would like to introduce you to four farriers who you can rely on........

Also have a read of my hooves blog where there are some more helpful hints and tips....

PHIL IBBOTSON
surrey

I have used Phil Ibbotson and his father Peter for years.  They are simply great farriers.

My mare has collapsed heels and well my 3 year old is 3.  They have gotten my mare sound with corrective shoeing that is done with genuine care and attention.  Their  patience and attitude with my youngster is brilliant and they always take their time.

TOM ANDERSON

I have used Tom on a number of occasions when I have something urgent or I forget to book Phil in advance, he is super efficient and is doing a great job, even when mine are having to be sedated or are trying to eat him.  He takes his time getting the shoes absolutely right and has a genuine interest in your horses hoof and what they need.
